Onr old friend E A. Saxe dronned in

Our old friend E. A. Sake dropped in on us Thursday, looking as young and spry as he did ten years ago. He is a cousin of J. G. Saxe, the decea sed poet. The latter, he says, was the laziest man he ever knew, ''he never would have done enough to break the Sabbath, if it had been Sunday all the year round" E. A. Sake is at present carrying mail and pas sengers between the Vekol and Casa Grande. Mining is being vigorously prosecuted at Vekol, which is one of the most prosperous camps in Arizona. The Vekol mine from which the camp takes it's name, continues it's large output of bullion, and other mines in this district look very promising. Messrs.

The Earnest Man.

The man not in earnest seldom accom- plishes much in this world. Bulwer once said: Nothing is so contagious as en- thusiasm; it is the allegory of the tale of Orpheus; it moves stones, it chains brutes. Enthusiasm is the genius of sincerity, and truth accomplishes no victories with out it. ''

Custom house officials last week seized about 200 head of cattle that were driven from Sonora to the West Huachucas, and arrested the owners of the cattle--Messrs Colin Cameron, Sydney Thomas, James Sutherland, H. K. Hilderbrant and Mr. Corn-for an alleged attempt to evade payment of duty. The cattle seized be- longed to stockmen residing this side of the Sonora line, and were gathered as strays on the roundup in Sonora and were being driven to the ranges of the respective owners. The gentlemen ar rested were taker before the Court Com missioner at Tombstone, and after an examination were discharged. The seizure of these cattle and arrest of their owners we can regard in no light other than an outrage. The caltle of A,.iz zoss-s sse.4rlrr.Icr wnose ranches are near the line are continually straying over into Sonora, and for United States custom officials to seize such cattle when they are being returned to their rightful ranges is an act so unjust and uucalled for that we are surprised it was ever attempted. We do not believe we will be called on to chronicle similar occurrence. Wilcox Stockman.

There is at the present time in the Su- perior Court of San Francisco suit against an insurance company with which the people of Pinal county are somewhat familiar. It is the suit before Judge
 Wilson of George A. Case, as assignee, against the Sun Insurance Company, The action is in two courts. In one, Case seeks to recov CT S1 600 on a policy, insuring Alexander L. Pam on stock of merchandise in a dirt-roof adobe building, in Riverside, Pinal County, Arizona, which was destroyed by fire on the 18th of September, 1884; and the other, S1 ,063 60, judgment rendered in district court of Arizona in suit of the above policy. The company con- tests the policy on the ground that when Pam made his application to be insured he overvalued his stock by $500 and that instead of sustaining total loss of S5 900 as claimed, it was not more than $500. The judgment is disputed on the ground that the man who was served with the process in Arizona was not then, or has not been since, the agent of the company, an l could not, therefore, represent it.

Nine. Trillena 1 had an awful time get

Highland YehicIes.

Every vehicle in Scotland, especially in
the highlands, is provided with a brake.
No pony chaise or village cart is without
one, and to go down the smallest declivity
without using the brake is regarded as
the height. If recklessness as to the dri-
yer, and cruelty as to the horses. Its use
on n four horse coach is plain enough, but
why the pony chaise sho1ld have it is not
so plain. The horses are tF0tted up the
hill and walked down, and the American
fashion Of walking them up the hill and
trOtting them down f3 esteemed heterodox
in the highest degree.
The Scotch horses and ponies are strong
and wiry, but like the English horses.
they lack get up and go. They never
seem to be in hurry to be off, and indeed
carry so much more flesh than American
horses that it is no wonder they lack
spirit. The oats on which the horses in
Scotland are so abundantly fed make
them tough. A Scotch pony is probably
the toughest thing there is upon the face
of the earth. A pony does not necessarily
mean miniature horse, for ponies are of
all sizes, and some are really imposing.

Fats as Tonics.

Fats, especially those which are of easy
digestion, like cod liver oil and sweet
cream, are also essential to the well being
OF the nervous system, The peculiar
substance-neurine-found in all nervous
structures contains fat as an essential CON
stituent 1t is remarkable that most
nervous" individuals have a strong aver
sion to fats as articles of diet. This is ex-
tremely unfortunate, for the omission of
fats and oils from the diet tends to not
only continue the nervousness, but to in
crease the irritability and weakness. Cod
liver oil is most valuable medicine in
such cases, because it is already partly
digested by admixture with the bile Sc
creted by the liver Of the fish, and thus
rendered still more easy of absorption.
The labor Of digestion is thus partly taken
away from the tasks to be performed by
the invalid. OF course, the fishy odor Is
Objectionable at first, but this is generally
easily overcome by continuing its use for
a short time. There are O. few prepare
tiOns on the market in which oil of some
kind has been partially digested by admix-
ture with pancreatine, Emulsions thus
made are palatable, but much more ex-
pensiYe than the crude oil.--GlobeDe

Tho PersIan,s Lack of Cleanliness.

As the Persians are filthy beyond be-
lief in their personal habits, it is no un-
usual thing to see high dignitary giving
himself airs in a coat glittering with pre-
cious stones and respondent with gold,
while vermin are daintily picking their
way between the clusters of diamonds on
his breast, in full view of his royal master.
Their public baths, although they NUM-.
Der by the hundred in each of the larger
towns, prevent Clearly habits rather than
promote them. The water in the common
tanks not alone serves for the additions
of hundreds, but is changed only twice a
week as rule, while the towels furnished
are never washed, and only hung out to
dry in the brOiling sun along the mud
walls of the bathing establishment. Dis
eases due to or aggravated by uncleanli-
ness are, therefore, frightfully common in
Persia, even among small children. As
for their clothes, they put them on, like
the Chinese, layer after layer, as the
weather grows colder, and peel them
selves again in the same fashion as the
sun wakes fiercer and fiercer. They
always sleep, men and women, in at least
one full suit of clothes, and during the
winter in a half dozen, covering their
heads tightly with n quilted skull cap
afterward drawing the coverlet over the
head, and thus preventing the fresh air
from getting into their lungs Wolf Won
